My maternal grandfather and grandmother are Joseph Stokes (1896) and Ada Hiscocks (1899);
about as black country as you can get, being born in Rowley Regis and Halesowen (Gorsty Hill) respectively.
They emmigrated to Australia in 1920, three months before my mother, their eldest child, was born.
The family has been in the Black country for centuries, with family names: Stokes, Read, Perry, Westwood, Parsons, Parkes, Hodgetts, Hiscocks, Moy, Andrews, Cutler, Tinsley, Allen, Adams, to my 6th generation back from myself.
So, if you have any of those family lines in your Black Country ancestry, I'd love to hear from you.
